Changes Within Me

Everyday i awake, Seeing nothing has changed, Its been 21 years since my eyes first peeked, To see the world all amazed, With new faces all around, Laughing, patting, and grabbing my arms, As i cried all my fears away, The days gave way, Till one day, I lost all my innocence, In a flight of a second, And then my pupils opened, To see the truth beyond,  That everything that we do, Everything that we want, It is a cycle that never ends, We seek forever, We search whenever, To find the sole truth behind our purpose, To imagine a life without problems, To imagine a day without struggles, From the rich to the poor, An economic burden, From love to hate, A social burden, From life and death, A survival burden, Too many moments grasped in just a second, Too many seconds in just a minute, Too many motives in just one life, Brilliantly put together in a sequence, Some forgotten, Some remembered, Some chosen and some unexpected, Yet as we move on, As we see the big picture, And as i dream on, I shall awake another day, Till my end, To see that nothing has changed, To see no one has changed, Except me....
